And still have begged for more.

And done a thousand things

They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly;
They told Marconi
Wireless was a phony-
It's the same old cry! — Ira Gershwin · 1937New love1 quote

Beguiled again,
A simpering, whimpering child again-
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I. — Lorenz Hart · 1940Originality1 quote
